SC Paderborn 07

Sport-Club Paderborn 07 e.V., commonly known as simply SC Paderborn 07 or SC Paderborn, is a German association football club based in Paderborn, North Rhine-Westphalia. The club has enjoyed its greatest successes since the turn of the millennium, becoming a fixture in the 2. Bundesliga before finally earning promotion to the Bundesliga in the 2013–14 season. They suffered a hasty fall from grace, however, being relegated to the 2. Bundesliga after only a season in the top division, and then again to the 3. Liga the season after. The club reached 2nd place in the 2018–19 season and was promoted to the Bundesliga.

Bundesliga and years of turbulence (2015-)

Paderborn’s foray into top-tier football turned out to be a brief one: after a decent first half of the season, the team’s play deteriorated and resulted in direct relegation in 2015. There followed a precipitous fall, as the club plummeted to 18th in the 3.Liga in 2017. This result would have led to relegation to the non-professional Regionalliga West, had TSV 1860 Munich not failed to obtain the licence necessary to continue professional play. Thus, Munich was forced to move to the Regionalliga Bayern which allowed Paderborn to avoid its third consecutive relegation. Having been saved narrowly, the club surprisingly finished second in the 2017/18 season and returned to the 2. Bundesliga. In 2019, a remarkable turn of events, the newly promoted side managed another top-two finish, which returned Paderborn to the Bundesliga after years of turbulence.

China Urges Citizens to Shun Australia as Virus Dispute Simmers

BEIJING – China is advising its citizens not to visit Australia, citing racial discrimination and violence against Asians, in what appears to be Beijing’s latest attempt to punish the country for advocating an investigation into the coronavirus pandemic.

A notice issued by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism late Friday said there has “been an increase in words and deeds of racial discrimination and acts of violence against Chinese and Asians in Australia, due to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic.”

As part of its perceived retaliation, China has already effectively ended imports of Australian barley by putting tariffs of more than 80 percent on the crop, accusing Australia of breaching World Trade Organization rules by subsidizing barley production and selling the crop in China at below production costs. That came a week after China banned beef imports from Australia’s four largest abattoirs over labeling issues.

Australian Trade Minister Simon Birmingham on Tuesday said the country did not want a trade war,but said China “has made errors of both fact and law” in applying WTO rules, adding that there was no evidence that Australia was engaged in dumping of products.

Australian has been among countries pushing for an international investigation into the origins of the coronavirus pandemic and responses to it. Beijing has denied its measures against Australian beef and barley were related to those calls.

WHO to launch independent probe

The World Health Organization has bowed to calls from most of its member states to launch an independent probe into how it managed the international response to the virus, which was first found in China late last year. The evaluation would stop short of looking into contentious issues such as the origins of the virus.

Chinese Ambassador Cheng Jingye’s has told Australian media that the country might face a Chinese boycott of its tourism and exports of wine, beef and other goods if the government pressed for a coronavirus inquiry.

China is the No. 1 market for Australian beef, accounting for about 30 percent of exports. It’s also the biggest foreign buyer of Australian barley.

Beijing has regularly used access to its huge market to punish governments from Norway to Canada in political disputes. Chinese officials routinely refuse to confirm a trade disruption is related to a political clash but make it clear Beijing wants concessions.

With 59 deaths between Wednesday and Thursday, the number of deaths, however, was reported to be relatively low. The increase in new infections could be due to the fact that more people have been tested, Ministry spokesman Kianush Jahanpur said on state television and over a million tests have been carried out so far.

Nevertheless, the Iranian health authorities were concerned about the increasing numbers.

On Thursday, there was a loop on television that warned of compliance with the distance, travel and hygiene rules.

The left-wing politician Lula accused Bolsonaro of irresponsibility in dealing with the corona pandemic. Brazil is the worst hit by the pandemic after the United States and officially, more than 30,000 people have died as a result of Covid-19..

The conservative President of Parliament Rodrigo Maia did not allow any of the applications for impeachment to be discussed and was criticized. Bolsonaro had publicly referred to the pandemic as a “little flu”. He opposes the ban on assembly and quarantine measures imposed by state governors. At the same time, the Supreme Court has launched investigations into Bolsonaro for possible interference with the judiciary system.

The Brazilian constitution sets high hurdles for impeachment and the Brazilian House of Representatives and the Senate must vote in the majority to initiate impeachment proceedings againt Bolsonaro.
